GENDER
ARTICLE
1. ... Learned
I learned from this article that the language I use is not gender neutral. ... I also learned that such stratification of gender through language is socially constructed. ... Applied
My first application would be that I will make sure that my language doesn’t offend anyone of a different or same gender as me. I will use gender neutral language. For example, I will use “he or she” or “person” instead of being gender specific when I am generalizing. ... For example if I hear my friends speaking language that gender offensive or not gender neutral, I will advice them to change it. I think if everybody begins paying attention and correcting each others language usage, using gender free language will soon become normal like male-as-normative usage is today. ... gender is not represented equally at RIT. ... Over the time society has defined gender roles for us. ... Applied
Through these observations I have become more aware that society and media define our gender roles. ... My application would be that I will accept people for who they are without taking into consideration their gender and I will not have any fixed expectations from them based on their gender. ...
Q) Do you think gender stratification still exists in United States?
Nathanael: Yes, gender stratification still exists. ... If gender stratification did not exist I would be treated the same way. ... I will consider all people equal irrespective of their gender. ... This experiment just looks at gender stratification at a very small level but this is where it starts.
